that's the anoying thing with composites ones the tool is set up for it the cost is down to materials and time taken to layup and cure it. so the more the make the cheaper it gets they'd be better off making loads of the buggers ;-)

1125kg you say? Sounds interesting, let's hope it gets the 300bhp lump in the S3....

I would expect it to be 30bhp+ as it would need to be considerably faster than the gti to make people fork out for it. And 300 bhp in a car that weighs only 1125kg will be sooooo much fun
